I already know how to put an already running process into background from command line but I was curious if there would be any chance to put a running GUI process into background using configurable HotKey.

  • You can stop a process with ctrl z and then make it run in the background with bg. If you wish you can make a hotkey for bg or for both operations. – sudodus Jun 08 '22 at 13:31

The shortcut key Super+h will place your focused program in the background. It will actually hide or minimize the window, so move it out of sight.

You can change that shortcut key in "Settings" - "Keyboard", "View and Customize Shortcuts", section "Windows".
